Welcome, and thank you for joining us in honoring those who served on the front lines of this most terrible war, and also those who stayed behind, tilled the fields and read the letters home.
Some of those so honored here are our ancestors who hailed from many places, served with many different units and met many different fates.
Others are a group of men who served with one of our ancestors and left behind their names and faces.
And those who were at home, waiting for the letters, the return... |
